Jed As Tight Little Pop Song. Tight and snappy, enthusiasm for a new classic.

Smooth, silky, and that unique silvery June '76 Garcia sound.

Pacific Coliseum

This is the peak of an absolutely classic show. I listened to this running today and I don't ever remember running. This version would constitute showing off in lesser hands. Serious travelogue.

Albuquerque Civic Auditorium

Absolutely ferocious Other One that travels all over town, drops in a perfect Me & My Uncle, and emerges into different territory altogether. An ELITE Other One. A this-is-why-the-GD-are-awesome Other One.

The improv passages are so light-on-their-feet and twisty-tangled = a fucking ACE rendition of this lovely.

A diggin'-in version - Garcia's Strat once again is a wonder. Band toils behind him in perfect modulating dynamic lock-step.
